ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Lapis Claw Leader Hydregion: -Stressed- <Not only have we lost an entire regiment in the latest combat, the messenger we sent to the Green Scale has still not returned.>

Hydregion Left Hand: -In a much deeper voice- <Maybe he betrayed us?>

Right Hand: -In a very high-pitched voice- <Or maybe something got him on the way there?>

Leader Hydregion: <It is possible...>

Me: -Entering the cave- <He was intercepted.>

Leader Hydregion: -Turns head- <By who?>

Me: <If I was to guess, the forces of Solipede and Liepard.>

Left Hand: <And how would you know?>

Me: -Shows the pendant-

Right Hand: <The pendant of the Green Scale! The humani is of the Green Scale!>

Left Hand: <That's impossible, no humani can be a member of a dragon clan.>

Me: <Much less it's leader.>

Right Hand: <HE'S THE LEADER! WHAT?>

Left Hand: <Even more impossible!>

Leader Hydregion: <I have seen many strange things... But I must say that this is among the strangest.>

Me: -Holds up dagger-

Left Hand: <What does an Oldbone Dagger have to do with anything?>

Me: -Purple fire blazes around the blade-

Right Hand: <The humani knows the Dragonfire Claw skill!>

Left Hand: <How is this possible?>

Leader Hydregion: <That is what I wish to ask as well.>

Me: <I am not pure humani. I was infused with the base essence of dragons.>

Leader Hydregion: <And such the Green Scale accepted you as leader...>

Me: <Yes.>

Leader Hydregion: <And you came to visit the Lapis Claw.>

Me: <Yes. Because my request to meet with you was intercepted.>

Leader Hydregion: <Well then, welcome to the lair of the Lapis Claw. We have much to discuss.> -Looks at Altair and Daisy- <Your...>

Me: <Friends.>

Leader Hydregion: <Oh, I was about to say "your guard and your consort". Anyway, your friends may explore the lair as they like while we discuss.>

They're members of the Resistance. They were captured, but recently escaped to Nimbasa, where I found them. We traveled up to Chargestone before finding a tunnel to here.

Sunrise: <...are they? You sure?>

Hydra: <Eh, why take risks? Just knock 'em out, deliver them to the Resistance unconscious. If they're right, good for them. If they're liars, they don't know the route and can be dealt with as the Krookodile pleases.>

-lifts Hydreigon bone to tap the three with-

Eep...

At least I'll get to the Resistance...unconscious again. I guess it's sort of ironic in a way.

-is knocked out by the bone-

Sunny: <I...what?> -is knocked out by the bone hitting him-

Shadow: <Really now, do we—> -smack- <—have to—> -smack- <—do this?> -is knocked out by a third smack-

-After reaching the forest east of Goldenrod, prepares to meet with Inka. A Nidorina guard appears in front of me-

Nidorina (to Maekrite) — <Maekrite? You... you're back! So soon!>

Maekrite — <Yeah... and we brought them all back.>

-The kits gather around the Nidorina who licks them happily, before leaving them on our care again as she goes to the colony core ring to announce the news...-

Hydreigon Marrow: <Huh. The dark one was stubborn... maybe I'm losing my touch. Yellow?>

Yellow Threedot: <y...yes, Elder?>

Hydreigon Marrow: <Send them to the Entralink, tell the commanders there we found them trying to contact them. I'll be practicing my strikes...>

Yellow Threedot: <bu- I can't carry all of them... or even one...>

Hydreigon Marrow: <Bah, bulk yourself up! But fine...>

-lifts bone; it glows for a second, then she points it at the ground by the dozing trio-

-Stealth Rocks burst from the ground, supporting them-

<Stones? Carry these "guests", and follow this boy to deliver them.>

-the rocks carrying Every, Sunny, and Shadow follow Yellow Threedot as he navigates the caves and climbs to the tunnel to the Entralink-

Ow...zzz...ow....zzz...AUGH EXPLODING PUDDING GRIMER!

-continues like this for the entire trip-

At the Entralink

-Michelle stands by Fool's side-

<Michelle>: <Fool? Are you okay?>

...

-Cuddlekins and Stella run up to Fool-

^Cuddlekins^: ^Sol! Are you okay!?^

.+Stella+: +Sol! Answer us!+

...no, I AM not okay FOR YOUR information. QUITE THE OPPOSITE in fact.

-Michelle, Stella and Cuddlekins are worried about Fool's state of mind right now-

now, i wish to be alone. IF YOU PLEASE!

-Michelle, Stella and Cuddlekins back off-

^Cuddlekins^: ^She's lost her mind! She's gone insane!^

<Michelle>: <I've never seen her act like that before...It's incredibly scary to see her like this..

.+Stella+: +Let's leave her alone for a while.... and ask the Audino what they can do about mental illnesses...+

-The three head over to the Medics tent-

-Piotr sees the Cubone tribe and their "guests"-

<Piotr>: <Uhh... May I help you?>

Yellow Threedot: <Umm... hi these people came into the tunnels looking for you and Elder Hydra said we had to hit them with a bone so they wouldn't know the way here so she did and told me to take them here so I did and did I do it right?>

-Decides to head over to a hotel to sleep-

-The Hydregion Leader and I converse on various matters pertaining to the war, the Resistance and dragonkin in general-

-Altair is waiting outside the opening to the Hydregion Leader's cave, Oakstrong is flitting around the edges, Spinnair is in the pond at the centre and FlareRaider is trying to figure out why the black version of Drake/Pentigan's hat is so familiar to him-

-Piotr looks confused, but answers the question-

<Piotr>: <If you mean that these three are looking for refuge, well, the found it.>

-Beat-

<Piotr>: <I'll take them off your paws now>

Penti is part dragon pokemon?!

-is confused of weather to be puzzled by this or think its awesome-

Oh well Penti is Penti and I love my Penti. So I don't care.

-The discussion eventually ends, I head off to find where Daisy has wandered off to and find somewhere to set up camp for the night-

- The resistance continue doing their jobs -

Chase: <Any word on where they may have Braviary imprisoned yet?>

Emolga: <Not yet, Unfeazent.>

Chase: <Well, then get back out there and continue your search!>

Emolga: <Yes, sir.>

Whimsicott: <Fine...>

At Black City

<Fin>: <Napoleon sir, the forces of Black City have surrendered and have pledged their undying loyalty to you>

<Napoleon>: <Excellent Fin, this boots up our forces from a mere 3K to around 10K. In the rate in which we're progressing, why, Unova will be in our paws in no time!>

-Eggs and Biscuits burst into the door-

<Eggs>: <NAPOLEON SIR! SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG!>

<Napoleon>: <Oh, what is it?>

<Biscuits>: <NAPOLEON SIR! IT's THE PRISONERS SIR!>

<Eggs>: <THEY'RE NOT THERE SIR!>

<Napoleon>: <What do you mean they are not there?>

<Biscuits>: <NAPOLEON SIR! THEY'VE DISAPPEARED SIR!>

<Eggs and Biscuits>: <WITHOUT A TRACE!>

<Napoleon>: <WHAT!? I must check this out IMMEDIATELY!>

-Napoleon heads down to the Dungeons-

<Stitch>: <Napoleon Sir!>

<Quarters>: <What brings you->

<Napoleon>: <WHERE ARE THEY! WHERE ARE THEY!?>

<Trace>: -All heads in unison- <They've disappeared sir!>

<Sorrow!Tracer>: <We have check the prison extensively...>

<Joy!Tracer>: <The door was locked tightly! So a faulty lock wasn't the case! We also checked for secret passages and whatnot and found none! Zip! Nothing! Nada!>

<Anger!Tracer>: <HOWEVER, SAWBUCK AND CLOVER PICKED UP SOME UNUSUAL PSYCHIC SIGNALS IN THE CELL!!>

<Napoleon>: <Strange Psychic Signals....?>

<Sawbuck>: <Yes Napoleon Sir! Strange psychic signals!>

<Clover>: <As if there was a rip in the space-time fabric sir...>

<Napoleon>: <Rip..? In the space-time fabric.... ARGH!>

-Napoleon pounds a dungeon wall-

<Napoleon>: <SNOOOOWMAAAN!!!>

-Napoleon keeps pounding the wall-

-I head off to sleep in the area I have set up-

-In his cave to the side, the Hydregion Leader seems to be pouring over a map of the region, on closer inspection his main head is asleep and the two hands are examining the map and making changes based on recent events-

Right Hand: <#The red pig is rising, the legends returning, the first human Elder is come to the masthead...#>

Left Hand: <What a silly song...> -Removes the purple paint from Black City and paints it anew in red-

Night.

At Nimbasa

-The Pokemon surround MGMT-

<Zoroark>: <Hey! We've got this guy to sing all the songs we want! Why don't we let hims sing a song he wants!>

-"YEAH!" Shot-

<Liepard>: <That's a good idea! Hey, MGMT! Sing a song that you want! Like about the city you came from or something!>

-MGMT thinks for a while, before thinking of a song to sing. The mood solems-

MGMT: All around me are familiar faces/ Worn out places, worn out faces/ Bright and early for the daily races/ Going nowhere, going nowhere

<Zoroark>: <...>

MGMT: Their tears are filling up their glasses/ No expression, no expression/ Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow/ No tomorrow, no tomorrow...

<Liepard>: <...>

MGMT: And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad/The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had/I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take/When people run in circles its a very, very...

-Beat-

MGMT: Mad world...

<Hydreigon>: <It sure is...>

MGMT: Mad world...

-After a fruitless day of searching for Unite, Woolly and her team have returned to the Entralink to try to decide what to do next.-

Flare: <Well, that was completely pointless. explored all of Western Unova, but found nothing that could point to Unite's whereabouts!>

Wulfric: <Yeah...But I wouldn't say it was completely pointless. We did take out a lot of Scolipede's patrols...>

Flare: -Smirks.- <That was pretty awesome. I bet those Bugs will think twice about messing with us now.>

Harriet: <Or they'll try even harder to take us down...>

Wulfric: <Oh. Yeah...>

-The three look rather worried.-

Flare: <...Meh. We were probably wanted criminals already. A bit more infamy amongst those Bugs won't do us any more harm.>

Woolly: <Hmm.>

-Woolly is studying a map of Unova intently.-

Woolly: <Where could they be keeping him? We haven't seen anything that looks like a prison in any of the towns we've been through so far. But...I bet if they were going to send him to any prison, it would be the biggest and most well guarded one they have, so he couldn't get out again easily.

So...Maybe he's in Castelia City? Or at least, somewhere nearby...>

-Fool is going through some... insane ramblings at the moment. She's blabbering on about some nonsensical stuff before mentioning a prison and the going back to her rambles-

-Michelle and the Entralink squad try to help her-

-The squad at the Moor of Iccirus are rebuilding the ruined Pinwheel Town resistance hub-

-Napoleon has given up on pounding the wall and swears revenge on Snowman. He then retreats to what was once Mezzo and Felis's quarters, holding his trophy prize in his hand-

- Chase hops over to Woolly and the others -

Chase: <Welcome back, did you find out anything?>

-wakes up at the Entralink, from a strange dream about exploding Grimer made of pudding. After checking Sunny and Shadow to make sure they are both okay, I go off somewhere else-

I had to do this sooner or later...

-lets out team-

Well we found most of the group. so lets check out the prison.

Elgyem: <Are we going to rescue Anom?>

No. Everyone knows that prisons are guarded better. We are just going to sneak around and find information about it. Then we wait around it for resistance because they might head there.

Woolly: -Shakes her head.- <No. We haven't had any luck yet. But we haven't searched very much of Unova yet. Although, we've only searched from Driftveil up to Icirrus so far.

If anything though, they're probably holding Unite in the most secure prison they have, since he's the Hero of Truth and everything.>
